The Pair Of Shoes
Tulip Flowers



The next day, in a minimalist house with a European feel and decorated with various photos and charters located on several walls and ornamental cabinets, as well as, a man who turns out to be Mike appears to be having breakfast with the manager and his assistant.


With a flat-looking facial expression, Mike ate his food with no excitement at all. In fact, his face looked so lethargic and also somber.


“Mike, I have found a house that is very suitable for you. The view is good, the house is beautiful, many trees and also far from the crowd. Anyway elo must like, elo can also while jogging there, very suitable, deh!” said Sisi while eating some nutritious foods that have been served.


“Oh yes? When can we move?”


"After our work in Germany is done,” replied Bayu while devouring his toast.


“Germany?” mike sounded confused.


“Yes, the day after we have a schedule in Germany. For five days, we will attend press conferences, some advertising products, interviews, as well as refreshing. Anyway, there we'll be super duper busy. So, elo do not do strange things while there, because it looks like there will be some reporters from Indonesia who will cover,” said Bayu who looks finished eating.


“Germany?” mike murmured slowly.


After breakfast, Mike visits Ghea's photo shoot. Because Ghea was an up-and-coming model, Mike was waiting for her shoot to finish in the waiting room until noon.


“Old, well?” ask Ghea who just finished.


Mike, who was reading a magazine that contains many photos of Ghea in the magazine, immediately closed the magazine and then looked at Ghea's face carefully.


“Lumayan, have you finished?”


“Udah, just finished. Cape really today,” complained while leaning his head on Mike's shoulder.


“Yes, we had lunch first how?”


Ghea nodded slowly.


After changing clothes and saying goodbye to their co-workers, the two of them immediately headed to their favorite Japanese restaurant and had lunch together there.


While opening the car door for Ghea, Mike looks very happy and also very excited.


Mike also did not forget to wear a seatbelt for Ghea to make his best friend was a small smile when he saw Mike treat her so sweet. After a few minutes on the way, they finally arrived at their destination and immediately booked their favorite food.


“Today Ken was very busy in the office, he had a meeting with a client from Korea. So, he will definitely be difficult to contact today,” said Mike opened his voice.


“Yes, please. Ken's company is a big advertising product company, surely he will be very busy. Just as rich as Bryan, just came home, he was busy with his myriad of work. Where there is a new artist Lago, surely the work is very much. Bryan's got a new movie too, right? He doesn't have time for us!” ghea looked disappointed.


Mike took a deep breath, it seemed like he had a lot of patience. Since childhood, Mike, Ghea, Bryan and Ken were close friends. Everywhere they are always together and since childhood Mike has put a great feeling to his female friend.


Until now, Mike still likes Ghea. However, Mike is still unable to tell Ghea his true feelings because in fact, his love is clapping one hand. Ghea likes other men and the man is her own best friend, Bryan.


Mike tries to relinquish and let Ghea with Bryan. He preferred his friendship over his great love for Ghea. During this time, Mike has also tried to forget his love for Ghea. However, the more you try to forget it, the bigger and deeper Mike feels about Ghea.


Every time she met, Ghea always talked about Bryan and how to get Bryan to know about his feelings. Mike is always trying to bring the two of them together, but it seems Bryan doesn't like Ghea.


Bryan loved Ghea as his best friend and never more. This is a very complicated love story that makes Mike confused about what to do to deal with this.


“Ghe, why don't you try again to express your true feelings with Bryan?” mike's advice suddenly.


“Masa cewe first, anyway?”


“From your relationship with Bryan endless gini, right?”


“Better like this only, Mike. I'm comfortable with our current situation.”


“But, surely you expect more, right?”


“To be honest and say that you love Bryan. Want to until when do you keep feeling it?”


For a moment Ghea seemed to be considering what Mike had said to her. Ghea stared at Mike's face so deeply that he made Mike look forward anxiously waiting for the comment from his best friend.


“Can also be tried. Hopefully the results are satisfying,” his laughter to make Mike also laugh even though his heart actually feels very sick.


After having lunch together and driving Ghea back to work, Mike walked down the path in a corner of Jakarta while thinking about things.


What would happen if Ghea had a relationship with Bryan? What should Mike do? Would he be willing to see Ghea with Bryan?


While Mike slowly stepped his foot in a corner of Jakarta, Angel appeared while pedaling his bike happily. Stretching out his hands and laughing cheerfully, he was so happy that he was going to Germany tomorrow.


Germany was a country that he really wanted to visit along with Nina. Angel has always wanted to go there. Finally, his dream will soon be realized because tomorrow he will go there.


So happy, Angel to throw his favorite tulip flowers to the side of the road. And the tulip, right fell in the hands of Mike who was walking down the path.


Mike who got the tulip was very surprised. He immediately looked for someone who had thrown him with the tulip. However, when Mike looked back, Angel's bike was already speeding in front of him.


“Who pelt me with this flower?” mike was confused.


Mike felt, lately he experienced some strange things. First, he lost the owner of the lock bracelet at the airport and the second suddenly Mike got a sprig of tulips which is the favorite flower of someone he loves.


What is this sign exactly?


“Why? Any problems?” ask Ken who just finished signing a document.


Mike, who happened to be in his best friend's office, could only daydream and look very uninspired at all.


“Sure about Ghea again, right? Mike, want to until you are upset because of Ghea?”


“Gue also does not know when I want to continue like this, I also do not actually want to be rich gini. I don't want to ruin my friendship with Bryan,” he said looking moody.


Ken crossed his legs, he folded his arms and glanced at his desk with a picture frame of himself with his three best friends.


“But you know what Bryan answered? When we were in college, you asked Bryan how he felt about Ghea. And, elo denger himself is the answer what?”


“Iya, I know. But, still I don't want to be selfish myself,” he said slowly to make Ken just laugh a little at the babbling of his friend.


“You guys are weird. The strangest creature,” said Ken to make Mike laugh wide hear it.


“If we're weird, then elo is weird too. Who asked him to meet with a group of strange people,” timpal Mike to make Ken shake his head.


“Tomorrow, so elo to Germany?” ask Ken.


“Iya, I want to focus on work first. Anyway, my work in Germany is also because the elo company asked me to be your advertising model,” he said insinuating.


Ken chuckled, causing Mike to take a deep sigh with that exasperated look on his face.


Meanwhile, Angel, who was packing in her house, had looked at a photo of herself with her parents who had long died.


Angel has been living alone all this time. In a simple house, Angel lives slamming bones to support her daily needs. On her 17th birthday, Angel got a very sad gift. On his birthday, both his parents died in a car accident.


The car they were riding when they were about to go on vacation together, was hit by another vehicle that caused a back-to-back collision. And, one of the passengers in the car that survived was just him. Because Angel is an only child, almost 8 years ago he lived alone in a house of the last relics of his parents.


While looking at a picture frame together with his parents, Angel looks very long for the figure of both parents.


“Mah, Pah, tomorrow Angel will go to Germany. Pray for Angel yes, hopefully Angel safe to get there and return to Indonesia again. Mah, Pah, finally Angel's dream to go to Germany materialized as well. Hopefully, in Germany later, Angel will get an experience that will never be forgotten in Angel's lifetime. I miss so much, Mah, Pah,” said Angel while kissing the photos of his parents.
